Probably normal but at a stop, my tachs showing the RPM's moving between 900-1000 RPMS....It's not a steady RPM....I guess I'm still thinking I'm riding the V-Rod where the RPM's stay the same at a stop...

 

Mine does that as well and it doesn't seem to affect anything. I've got 18mos on bike w/17+K miles.

 

'09 FLTR w/400 miles 1000 rpm steady at idle

 

efi?=normal!

 

This is the norm right were you want it.

 

Ditto. Absolutely normal.

 

By the book it should be 1050 at idle steady, it should drop to 950 only when in high heat mode.

 

Mine does the same, I'm having the dealer adjust it to 1050/1100 as that's the sweet spot and vibs are at a minimum.

 

How do you adjust the idle RPM's with a ECM controlled / fuel injected bike?? Maybe if you have a SERT installed but I'm always looking to learn something here. I should mention that I'm running a V & H Fuel Pac.

I see others have the same thing going on, so I'm assuming it's close to being normal.

Just did some checking and if the '09's are the same as the '08's, it looks like I have to cycle my ignition 4 times at 20 seconds apart to reset the TPS. Then I have to call, well not really sure who...Phone number I got from a web site is 585-424-2120. Guess I should have bookmarked the site, CRS....

If anyone knows anything about this, please let me know........

 

The 2009 Touring Bike service manual advises that the idle rpm will be 1000 rpm, plus or minus 50.
As far as having the dealer service department adjust your idle speed, that is not likely to happen, unless you have added a fuel management device on your bike that uses a programable map. The bikes stock map is set in the software to conform to EPA standards. For a dealer to jack with the rpm range they would likely be changing the fuel to air ratio which could result in repercusions by the EPA if discovered. I believe some states are using a sniffer on motorcycles now, just like cars.
I guess you could say that "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature" (as in EPA).
